Application filed August 5, 1924.' Serial No, 730,182.

This invention relates toimprovements in windows.

metal trim for One ofthe object-s of the invention is to provide a metal facing tending. inside corners Jfor operation with a metal facing or the horizontal bottom side or lowerk i opening, being flush with the lying -boundary of-window metal trim orfacings plaster' surrounding the in the ver'tically ex-v for windows in c0- stool overthe entire ner surface of the window opening rendering the inish sanitary.

Another object is to provide means for connecting the vertical corner facing with the sheet metal stool of the window.

Other obj ects, benefits and advantages will become apparent from a the following description consideration ofy when taken in conjunction with the accompanying draw ing, wherein Fig. 1 is a perspective view of a window showing the invention and showing parts in section.

Fig. 2 is Fig. 3 is a front view hand corner of the trim section.

asection on line 2-2 of Fig. 3.

of the lower left showing parts in Fig. 4 is a section on line 4-'4 oit Fig. 3.

' In all the views acters are employed In my the same Areterence charto indicate similar parts. U. S-Patent No. 1,393,792, granted to me October 18, 1921, the trim and reveal are made of one piece of metal which covers the entire surface bordering the sides and end of the window upper the reveal extended patent opening. In this under the vertical stop strip which serves to retain the window sash in place.

In the present application the trim and reveal are replaced by a rounded strip to cover the corners, commonly kknown as a corner bead but wider in extent, and furnishing grounds to which the plaster is to be finished.

The stool covering 5 of lar to that shown in my reference has been made which joins the covering The bracket 6 5 andthe curved vertical member 7 is somewhat diiierent.

The vertical members 7 are mitered to a similar member 8 'at the top'of the window,

as at 9v.

The side plates be nailed to the corner o 10 of the member 7 may f the wall 11, as

plastered, and a corner piece at its outer :end downwardly, providing a segmental part at 12, and laterally at 13, to

avoid exposed angular surfaces and to conormto theA curves of the connected parts An upstanding dowel 14 rises from the segmental curved end 13 about which the lower ends of the side members 14 are placed to unyieldinglyhold said side members in position withl respect thereto. The curved portionV 15 of the the wall 11 being held by the dowel14 and the plates 10. The plaster 17 is made flush with the part 15. l

A bracket, one right hand and the'other lett hand, is placed in each of the respective corners or' the window.

Having described my invention what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is

1. In combination, a corner bead structure member 7 stands out lfrom comprising a corner bead formed from a y striplof material bent longitudinally to prof vide a bead portion proper, portions of said strip being bent backwa-rdly upon itselt1 at the edges of said bead portion proper, thence inwardly, substantially parallel to form a 'n narrowed throat and thence away from each corner piece being provided at one end with an ear adapted to be inserted into the end of the corner bead in a space defined by said bent portions 'of the bead portion proper.

E2. In combination, a corner bead structure comprising acorner bead formed from a strip ot material vide a bead portion proper, portions of said strip being bent backwardly upon itself at the edges ofsaid beadportion proper, thence inwardly substantially parallel to form a narrowed throat and thence laway from each other substantially at right angles to form wings for attachment adapted to form a right angular continuation and connection Jror said bead portion-proper, said corner piece being provided at one end with an ear adapted to be' inserted tween the bead portion proper and'said bent to a structuretobe bent longitudinally to prg)-` to a structure to be in a space beback portions of said strip, said ear being adapted to .be held snugly in said corner bead between the corner bead portionproper and said backwardly bent portions.

3. In combination, a corner bead structure comprising a corner bead formed from a strip of material Vbent longitudinally to provide a bead portion proper, portions of said strip being bent backwardly upon itself at the edges of said bead portion proper, thence inwardly substantially parallel to form a narrowed throat and. thence away'from each other substantiallyvat right angles to form wings for attachmentv to a structure to be i vz plastererha stool located at substantially rightangles to said bead, anda. corner piece compris-ing right angular portion adapted to form a. continuation of and a right angled connection' between the bead portion .and stool, said corner piece being provided at its ends with projections adapted to telescope an end of the corner bead and an end ofsaid kbracket for casingsy comprisinga substantially angular body provided with projections extending from the ends-of the body adapted to engage and substantially trans-- versely ll receiving spaces of a vertically Vdispoeed cornerbeadandahorizontallydisf a posed stool. a .Y Y In .testimony whereof 'I` hereunto lset my hand. 1 Y
